Summary
Caitlyn’s ears were ringing from the explosion.
There was smoke and dust all around her, obscuring her vision as she staggered to her feet, trying to process what had just happened. One minute she’d been half-carrying Vi away from the carnage after a Noxian soldier had sliced a nasty cut across her stomach, the next Vi was pushing her away and running to throw herself in front of Jinx, who seemed to be reaching out for the monstrosity that had once been their father. Caitlyn just barely caught a glimpse of a tiny, blue-haired figure crouched underneath the roaring creature before there was an explosion of blue light, the force of it so strong she was knocked off her feet.
Now, she gripped her rifle at her side, scanning desperately through the smoke for any sign of life. The name left her lips like an instinct, panic taking over as she screamed. “Vi! Vi, are you out there? Vi!”

Summary
Ms. Kiramman drew back, her expression hardening, eyes growing icy once more. “So this is your opinion of me,” she said coldly. “Thank you for explaining so fully. Perhaps these offenses might have been overlooked had not your pride been hurt by my honesty–”
Vi scoffed in disbelief. “My pride?”
“–in admitting scruples about our relationship,” Ms. Kiramman went on, her voice rising. “Could you expect me to rejoice in the inferiority of your circumstances?”
A laugh bubbled out of Vi’s throat, anger burning in her chest. “And those are the words of a lady?” She stepped closer to Ms. Kiramman, so close now their noses were almost touching. “From the first moment I met you,” she spat, “your arrogance and conceit, your selfish disdain for the feelings of others made me realize that you were the last woman in Runeterra I could ever be prevailed upon to marry! We are oil and water, Ms. Kiramman. We were never meant to be.”

Summary
"This is important, Ekko. If I can get to this other universe, then maybe there’s a chance I could meet…” she trailed off.
“Vi,” Ekko finished. Powder nodded and he sighed. “Pow, you do realize she’s not gonna be our Vi, right? She could be a completely different person. Besides, what if she has a Powder of her own?”
Powder knew he had several points. The logical thing to do would be to destroy the Z-drive and the gemstones and never think about interdimensional travel ever again. It was selfish to assume she could go to another universe, meet another Vi, and have her sister back–even if it was just for a short while. But Powder was finding it incredibly difficult to care about logic. She wanted to see her sister, even if it wasn’t her sister.
or
It has been six months since the events of S2E7 and Powder hasn't been able to get the universe where Vi is alive out of her head since. But will re-building the Z-Drive to visit this other universe's Vi give her the closure she needs?

Summary
Powder stumbled towards the apartment, throwing an arm over her nose to block the dust, even as Mylo and Claggor shouted after her that it wasn’t safe. She staggered inside, blinking through the haze as the shimmering blue particles in the air started to fade. The explosion had torn the apartment to pieces. The doors had all been blown open, leaving jagged openings in their place. Metal support beams twisted their way out of the crumbled walls like claws. The wall that separated the main room from the lab had collapsed and underneath it…
A horrible scream tore its way out of Powder’s throat and Mylo and Claggor were at her side in an instant. Vi was just barely visible beneath the rubble–a shock of pink hair, an outstretched arm.
“No!” Powder shrieked, scrambling over to her. “No, no, no, please! Vi!”

My interpretation of the alternate universe in S2E7 of Arcane where Vi dies in the explosion at Jayce's apartment.

Summary
Powder lets out a loud snort, her voice coming out in a wry, sarcastic drawl. “Yeah, that’ll happen. Vi’ll get a rich business lady to— no, no, no,” her voice raises a pitch with excitement, and a cackle of laughter, “a Suit. Vi gets one of the Suits to fall in love with her.”
A small town mechanic, a city girl with car trouble and a holiday au romance like every other.

Summary
Vi hummed, adjusting her grip on the saddle and enjoying the evening breeze as her boots scuffed through the dust.
It was the creak of a rocking chair that made her pull up short, her head lifting.
Cait.
Caitlyn was sitting on Vi’s porch in her rocking chair with her hands folded in her lap.
***
Vi is a ranch hand on the Kiramman’s ranch, and the tension between her and Caitlyn has been building for months.

Summary
It’s been two years since the war in Piltover. With Sevika on the council, and Caitlyn the Sheriff, the people of Piltover and Zaun have reached a fragile truce, albeit a tense one. Their alliance is put to the test when Vi and the Firelights discover a new threat deep in the belly of the undercity, one whose origins might just bring down everything they’ve built.
---
“Given the circumstances, I believe a full-scale security detail would be inappropriate. A discreet, dedicated team would allow you to attend your day-to-day duties uninterrupted while we continue the investigation.” Caitlyn chose her next words carefully, knowing that this was the most delicate part of the conversation. “With one officer dedicated to your personal security during the course of your duties as councilor.”
She had barely finished speaking when Caitlyn’s office door opened again. Sevika glanced towards it, and Caitlyn saw the way her face immediately twisted into a scowl when she recognized the intruder.
“Oh, fuck no.”

Summary
Vi’s new home–for the next few months, at least–definitely has more than a few stories to tell. She just doesn't expect the ghost of Caitlyn Kiramman to be the one to tell them. After a hundred years of solitude, haunting the halls of her childhood home, Caitlyn is used to being alone. At least she thinks she is, until the manor's latest pink-haired, tattooed guest changes everything.
---
Vi comes to a stop in front of a portrait of a woman standing with her back to the viewer, only half of her face visible over her shoulder. There is a hunting rifle in her hand, and a proud arch in her spine. There’s something about the woman’s expression that Vi can’t look away from–it’s soft, almost curious, but there’s an undeniable sharpness in her eye, like she’s staring right into Vi’s soul.
She’s also, at least from what Vi can tell by the angle of the portrait, exactly Vi’s type.
“Well, hey there, handsome,” Vi says under her breath.
“Good afternoon.”
